Dumb question of the day
Ok, there is a small fluid reservoir on the top center of the engine, just under the plastic trim…can anyone tell me what that is? It looks kinda like a coolant tank but i am not certain. Please help solve this mystery.

Separate cooling circuit for Intercooler. Should take the same coolant as your radiator.
Make sure it’s not low

Top is the “split line” on the reservoir.

May also lead to to engine damage in extreme cases.
Good Luck,
